AMH Tier Attestation Tool Training

There are multiple AMH tiers. Providers will be grandfathered as AMH Tier 1 or Tier 2 providers. However, providers may attest to a high tier level using the AMH Tier Attestation Tool, which will be available in the NCTracks secure provider portal on Oct. 1, 2018.

An instructor-led training course is being offered via WebEx to assist providers in using the AMH Tier Attestation Tool. Upcoming tool training session will be held on:
